Plasma N-terminal protype-B natriuretic peptide levels in risk assessment of patients with mitral regurgitation secondary to ischemic and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy.
Frank Lloyd Dini,Paolo Fontanive,Umberto Conti,Diana Andreini,Enrico Cabani,Salvatore Mario De Tommasi +5 more
TL;DR: Assessment of plasma NT-proBNP allows for stratifying patients with functional MR regardless of their degree of valvular incompetence, and identified patients with the highest risk of cardiac mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Utility of N terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide in elderly patients
TL;DR: This study showed that NT-proBNP had excellent negative predictive value for systolic dysfunction and significant valve disorders in very elderly patients, which increased significantly in systolics dysfunction, valve heart disease, and atrial fibrillation.

TL;DR: Despite LV remodelling, plasma BNP concentrations are often normal in patients with VHD, and mild elevations of BNP occur with LA dilatation in the presence of normal LV.

TL;DR: Natriuretic peptides have been reviewed for their updated information and new recommendations in heart failure and also potential role of these biomarkers in the management of various clinical conditions have been addressed in the form of expert opinion based on the available data in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
B-type natriuretic peptide concentrations and myocardial dysfunction in critical illness.
TL;DR: It appears that BNP assay offers complementary information to conventional approaches for the evaluation of cardiac dysfunction, and multi-marker strategies may prove valuable in prognostication and evaluation of therapy in a greater variety of illnesses.

TL;DR: Examination of the sources and mechanisms of the secretion of BNP in comparison with those of ANP in control subjects and in patients with heart failure concludes that BNP is secreted mainly from the left ventricle in normal adult humans as well as in Patients with left ventricular dysfunction.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of age and gender on plasma brain natriuretic peptide concentration in a population-based study confirmed that discriminatory values for BNP for detection of reduced ejection fraction were higher in women and older persons and were different between the two assays.
